Kinzinger Challenges Trump Over Biden Pardons, Dares Legal Action
Former Congressman Adam Kinzinger dismissed Trump’s claim that Biden’s autopen-signed pardons are invalid, urging him to file charges and asserting confidence in a court victory.
- Donald Trump declared that preemptive pardons issued by Joe Biden to January 6 Committee members, including Adam Kinzinger, are invalid due to being signed with an autopen.
- Adam Kinzinger publicly challenged Trump to bring legal charges against him, asserting he would defeat Trump in court and criticizing his fixation on January 6.
- Legal experts have affirmed the constitutionality of autopen-signed pardons, citing historical precedent and legal rulings supporting their validity.
- Kinzinger reiterated that he never requested a pardon, stating his belief that accepting one implies guilt, which he denies.
- The White House has not endorsed Trump’s claims, and the debate highlights Trump’s ongoing focus on the January 6 Committee and its findings of his responsibility for the Capitol riot.
